YIAY

Go To

Inspired by Jacksfilms’s Yesterday I Asked You series, or YIAY for short. I’m going to ask a Jacksfilms-style question, and other posters must give humorous answers. Tomorrow, I will repeat the question and give my favorite answers. I will then let another poster ask a new question, and the cycle repeats (at least) every day.

Example of a YIAY video.

If the original poster isn’t available to give their favorite answers, another poster is free to step in and give theirs (barring their own).

I have a question for you. Describe TV Tropes in just 4 words.

I'm not saying I didn't poison your wife ten years ago, sending you into an emotional spiral into vigilantism, terrorism, and worse, ultimately getting you sentenced to death, all to inherit the Cumberton Fortune after you died with no closer kin, I'm just surprised you didn't figure it out sooner, what with nearly every misery of your past decade always having me adjacent.

If the fifth grader was so smart, he wouldn't be tied up in my basement now, would he?

"Are you a smarter than a fifth grader?" Sounds like a fifth-rate question that a fifth grader would ask. You should do it more professionally like, "Are the person that I am currently talking to, which indicates you smarter than the first letter of the modern Latin alphabet fifth grader?"

Fuck you if you're basing my intelligence off of random trivia that every 5th grader knows. If 10 year-old Tammy over there can answer a Question regarding Titrations off the top of her undeveloped brain then I'll be damned, I might be dumber than a 5th grader. But I really fucking doubt it unless you pick some one in a million mathematical genius to take part in your shitty ass show.
